A St. Paul woman is dead following a late-night crash in Minneapolis on I-94 Saturday.
According to the Minnesota State Patrol, troopers were called to eastbound I-94 after Franklin Avenue just after 10:30 p.m.
There, an incident report from the agency says troopers found an eastbound Harley Davidson rear ended a Toyota Camry and caused both of the riders to be ejected.
Ann Elizabeth Warner, 40, of St. Paul, died at the scene from her injuries, according to the report.
The driver of the Harley Davidson was identified as 53-year-old Jerry Lynn Phillips, also of St. Paul. He was taken to Hennepin County Medical Center for life-threatening injuries.
Neither Warner, nor Phillips, were wearing a helmet at the time of the crash, according to the State Patrol.
No word if anyone inside the Camry was injured.
